Using Barcode Scanner

help
1

Hi guys

Basically, i am creating an App where a user need to scan his QR code to be able to access his data, i am desperately stuck on how to use the

`cordova:com.phonegap.plugins.barcodescanner

Meteor.startup(() => {

if (Meteor.isCordova) {

Template.barcode_scanner.events({
‘click .scan’: function () {

  cordova.plugins.barcodeScanner.scan(
    function (result) {
      alert("We got a barcode\n" +
        "Result: " + result.text + "\n" +
        "Format: " + result.format + "\n" +
        "Cancelled: " + result.cancelled);
    }, 
    function (error) {
      alert("Scanning failed: " + error);
    }
 );

}

});

}
else{
console.log(“no cordova here…”);
}

});

`

How to store the data to be accessed ?
How can i attached it to the QR code for a specific user?

Is there any way to do this better?

Please Help!

Thank You So Much.
Love,

Is this the only way the user gets access? or does he have a password too?
Anyway, I would suggest making use of the meteor accounts-passwords package, just use the text in the result object you receive from the scanner as the password:

Meteor.loginWithPassword(
   username,
   result.text,
   function(err){
      if(!err){
      //do something if succeeded in logging in
      }
      },
   );

Alternatively, you can create a collection of usernames and qr-codes and query it with a Method.
Keep in mind that this will mean that you will lose the encryption the accounts package provides out of the box…
